Unless you literally need it tonight, grab it from Amazon and you'll have it by this time tomorrow.
Great information here. For trains you might want to check out the National Rail App, it has up to date times, costs etc. The 'Get Me Home' feature is quite useful if you're uncertain where you are.
I made aa airtable itinary of things to do in Liverpool. Follow the link:

I don't think so. There's some good stuff on Youtube about them. There's also this:

Which looks interesting.
I actually found it and purchased it on Amazon. It's from Haunted Liverpool 6. Very interesting book! :)

The accent will be hard to adjust to, but 99% of people are very friendly and very welcoming to strangers. Just be bold and explain to people that you are new & the accent is hard, I'm sure they will accommodate you.
Meetup.com has groups you can find in Liverpool - there is one for International people who have moved to Liverpool. Plus there are quite a few other groups to make friends with, but you will meet people in your classes too.
Spanish people really are viewed very favourably here. Football is BIG and so when we had good Spanish players and managers, people really became fond of their country. Plus, there are Spanish people here too, so it's not like we've never met one!
There is a great selection of food. Italian, Chinese, Mexican, Peruvian, Shushi, etc and the nightlife is very varied. There are huge clubs, small bars, pubs and everything else you could want.
Outside the city centre in the suburbs can be less friendly towards outsiders, but it isn't like you're going to get murdered.
I would say: South Liverpool is better for students than North. Have a look specifically for student accommodation at first, or see if your University have their own residence ("Halls").
As for all landlords in all countries: make sure you get everything in writing, check the place out first, etc.
We have plenty of very green parks (look up Sefton Park or Princes Park) and be prepared for the weather... it rains a lot and gets quite cold here!
To be fair mate there was a really good BBC documentary on it that covered Liverpool (& other places). Specifically "fake" beggers. That's not to say there aren't loads of legit homeless people on Liverpool's streets but I have 100% seen a few chancers as well who make some good money.

Haha, no worries at all :)
I don't have edit access by the looks of it - getting a forbidden error when clicking the link. I've pasted the markup to:
if that's easier though?
I would also echo the other comments suggesting using the time between now and getting an instructor sorted to start revising to get the theory test sorted and out of the way. I passed my driving test last year, and used the lockdown time to do a lot of theory test prep. Both the wife and I used an app on the Play store called Theory 4 in 1 which helped me (and the OH) massively. It costs £4.99 but it covers everything, from all the potential questions in the theory side, braking distances, revision to help with the signposts and also provides something like 70-80 clips for the hazard perception test. The company behind the app also offer a money back guarantee - so long as you hit their standard in the app (scoring the right marks in practice tests on both theory and hazard perception) if you happen to go and fail your theory test, they will refund you the cost of the theory test charge. I don't know whether they do it or not or how difficult it is to get that money back, as I passed the theory first time, but the fall back is there when using the app.
link to the app below if you have an android phone - I believe its also on iOS under the same name as well

Do you mean October 2021? If you mean some years later then there is a good chance you wont need any cold weather clothing at all. Because of proximity of ocean, the temperatures stay mild all around England. Winter really starts here in late January lasting up to late March, but even then, if temperature falls below negative 5 all hell breaks loose. Sweaters and warm woolen jackets will cover you just fine, even a T-shirt is fine after a night out. Recommendation? Get some city friendly outdoor gear that is water resistant, something like Craghoppers Men's Sabi Jackets Waterproof Insulated, Dark Moss, XL: Amazon.co.uk: Clothing that should cover you in even the harshest cold and downpour here in Liverpool.
Someone in a Liverpool history facebook group made me aware of this book and I can't put it down:
Recollections of Old Liverpool by a Nonagenarian
Free to download at: https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/21324
Originally published in the 1850s it covers the transition from fishing town to international port.
Landlords need to give good reason for refusing to allow pets now. If they say something about them damaging the property you can offer to pay more rent per month or pay a larger deposit (remember, it's got to be reasonable). Look up the 'Fairer Private Rented Sector' report. But, to be honest, some of this will be cheaper. ;)
Anywhere that has Nation security on the door won't let you in alone on a friday/saturday night at least, not sure about the rest of the week, but there's still plenty of places that you can get in to.
Generally, though I've found that going out on the lash isn't the best way to forge lasting memorable relationships. Unless you're very dedicated it's hard to actually go on a "night out" alone and have fun. Sure you can sit in the corner with a pint, anyone can do that, and that's fine if that's your objective, but that's not generally what people call a "night out".
I'd recommend finding some kind of social hobby or joining a meetup group over just going out. Having some social pretense for talking to other people makes things far easier than just walking up to some group and trying to talk to them. The easiest way to make new friends is through multiple unplanned encounters, so you're more likely to make a friend if you just have some kind of social hobby where you keep running into the same people.
Some possibilities:
The Pilgrim hosts comedy improv workshops on mondays which I used to go to. There's a few groups on meetup.com that you can join according to your interests. Maybe there's some kind of class you could take in something that interests you, I saw someone posting about their HEMA classes on here a while ago.
You really want to die on this hill? You're the one who doubled down on "poverty breeds violence" Try not to cite imaginary studies if you can't provide sources, you're spouting nonsense. Blaming knife crime on poverty is like blaming pedophilia on being catholic. It's incredibly insulting to people who live without much at all. Ghana is one of the most peaceful countries in the world, yet they live in abject poverty. Source: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Natives-Class-Empire-Sunday-Bestseller/dp/1473661234
There is a massive correlation, I realise that's inconvenient for a lot of people in this city.

Lol cannot tell if the other comments are for real or not, but this is technically a CO2 cartridge to pump your bike tire quickly

But, you know, it may have other uses too...
Depends what you want to do in Wales. Connah's Quay has a nice park called Wepre Park if you want to go for a nice walk and according to Trainline has daily return tickets for £8.50 (Lime Street to Shotton) using the Bidston line.
​
Connah's Quay/Deeside isn't the nicest of places though but there's a wetherspoons right by the station and after a few minutes walk you can be in the middle of nowhere with no one around if you take some of the public footpaths on the outskirts of the park, if you're on your own I'd recommend just sticking to the park paths.
Yes it has 14 stops along the way. maybe this link will help?
From a desktop I have to say your site is great and has none of the issues from the comment below...bar the typo, you seem really passionate about animals and your job. The flow and layout seems smooth and easy to use, The app and e-mail updates with pictures is a great idea !
Like suggested below I would get as much advertising as you can ASAP as I know there is a ton of competition in the Liverpool area for this type of work.
https://www.gumtree.com/petsitters-dogwalkers/liverpool
Can see at least 5 companies posting there in the past month, on top of this there are also free dog walking services for passionate dog walkers that may also affect your business.
Best of luck and great site.
Is it the trans pennine trail you’re referring to, the path goes from hunts cross all the way north through to Aintree race course?
Most of the parks and roads it crosses have access points.
As mentioned above, Blackthorne Road is a good access towards the northern end, whilst toward the the southern end there access off Higher Road between Hunts Cross and Hale Wood.
If you use Komoot, the following shows a circular tour similar to the OP suggestion.
I'm afraid I don't know any runners because I don't run myself, it's just been the marathon in Liverpool as well so I'm unsure whether that will be a blessing or a curse because there will probably still be thousands of runners in the city but they may still be goosed from the marathon. I'd probably try meetup.com they're meant to be good for finding groups like that on short notice.
I've used airtable to list stuff to o in Liverpool. It's like a spread and best viewed on a PC.
If you can give me feedback on how useful it is or not, that would be great.
I made a tourist guide on AirTables. I think its elderly friendly as in no night clubs or bars to the lsit yet.
​
So I've compiled a list of attractions and some resturants I like. access it on airtables. The opening times are for my next trip so check the opening times individually
​
Is it only Liverpool history or would some Wirral history be okay?
If the latter then check out any of the none fiction books by Gavin Chapel.
I got this pc software pack: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Driving-Test-Success-All-Tests/dp/1843266164/ref=sr_1_5?dchild=1&keywords=Uk+theory+test+pc&qid=1630440609&sr=8-5
It was just a QUID from a charity shop, in the dvd section, and it was fucking brilliant. Absolutely smashed the arse out of the test, the hazard bits were even the same videos.
I dunno if it's available on iPhone, but on Android there's a good app for this called Sky Map. You basically point it at the sky and it shows you what's what. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.stardroid
